Congratulations to our Ph.D. student Andrea Cesari for his scientific publication entitled “Interaction of natural flavonoid eriocitrin with β-cyclodextrin and hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin: an NMR and molecular dynamics investigation” in “New Journal of Chemistry”. Many studies have focused on improving water solubility, stability and shelf-life of natural flavonoid. To overcome this problems, β-cyclodextrin and its derivatives are interesting candidates.
Here we present this review work, based on a scrupulous and important bibliographic reaserch concerning glycoconjugated metal complexes used for tumor therapy and diagnosis.
Tumor cells display augmented requests for carbohydrates and, in particular, for glucose in order to sustain their high proliferation rate, which causes an increased glycolytic process (Warburg effect).
Our contribution “Enantioselective Synthesis of Industrially Relevant Amines Using an Immobilised 𝛚- Transaminase” is now published in “Applied Biocatalysis - The Chemist's Enzyme Toolbox” from Wiley. We reported a transamination protocol using a commercial immobilised 𝛚-Transaminase for the synthesis of industrially relevant amines starting from the correspondent ketones.
